02/25/22 • 20 min
In this week’s episode, Matt takes a stab at answering 5 common preparedness questions. We’d love to hear your responses to these as well. Feel free to comment below!
Why did you get into preparedness?
What movies/shows or books influenced your preparedness planning most?
Shelter in Place or Bug Out?
If faced with an active shooter-type situation, would it be better to run and hide, or attack the shooter?
What would be some means of communication in a post-apocalyptic world?
Give it some thought!

Would you be prepared? Are you prepared?
Choosing to be more prepared every day is a skill. One that should be honed. Focusing on growing just a little everyday will allow us all to be prepared to respond well and recover faster.

In the most recent GenXTalkin:Storytime, Ed and Matt review an interesting story and scenario involving a couple who’ve recognized a very difficult event occurring, the lack of fuel. We would technically refer to this as more of a Hi Impact, Low Frequency type of event. But the effects of such an event could be significant to just about everyone throughout the country and possibly the world.
The US economy revolves around the concept of Cheap Oil prices so that business can be done. Airlines, trucking, electric trains, a cities infrastructure, heat, and of course our vehicles, would all be affected. And these could potentially cascade into more significant losses of jobs, access to food and medicine.
Although this is just fiction, it does show a need for the general populace to emphasize preparedness in their day to day lives. We hope it helps to understand how lived could be affected. Enjoy.

Active Shooter Review GXT-EP11
For today’s show, I thought we’d spend some time digging into the details around Active Shooters. I recently attended a webinar presented by a team of people including multiple subject matter experts from private organizations as well as FBI and former FBI members. This was a very well put together set of presentations. It flowed in a very clear pattern of Preparation, Action and Recovery, or P.A.R.
It hit me while I was in the middle of the webinar that our audience, being primarily GenX, would be perfect beneficiaries of the information. Many of us are in positions of management, supervisory, executive level, or heck even business owners. And you’ll see when we review the numbers how much of these activities actually occur in places of business. So it’s important to be aware of what it looks like when and how Mass Shootings and Active shooter events occur.
I’ll break down each throughout the show today
